Myself and joybee were in Saltaire Saturday just gone
We went with the intention of shooting the Mill from the River Aire side, and It didn't disappoint
Saltair is a Victorian model village, and was founded by Sir Titus Salt in 1853. The Mill stands between the Leeds and Liverpool Canal and the River Aire.
Full history etc here....

I really enjoyed my time here. It certainly is a unique place to visit, and deffo on the cards to do so again
Here's a few shots from the day. Hope you enjoy.
Starting with a stroll on the Canal, and the chav section.
The contrast between degeneration and regeneration.
Beautifully restored canal side living.
Approaching the massive Salts Mill.
And the point of the whole stroll. The view from the river Aire. Beautiful surroundings.
The United Reformed Church., where Titus Salt is interred.
And just to go off tangent....... This is what greeted me whilst answering the call of nature at the nearby Salts Sports Club
Original Duckett Urinals from the 1930's............ Who would have thought it.
Was a good day
